I have just been looking through the mortality statistics for 2004, how many people died from what cause. The deaths from diseases makes you wonder if we have our priorities right.
Approx 3000 people died at the WTC on 9/11, which caused the USA to spend billions and billions of dollars, kill thousands and thousands of civilians, and invade two countries.
In 2004 approx 3000 people died from each of the following;
Malignant neoplasm of ovary (female only)
Malignant neoplasm of rectum
Malignant neoplasm of pancreas (male only)
Malignant neoplasm of bladder (male only)
Malignant neoplasm of kidney,except renal pelvis
Malignant neoplasm of brain
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
Diabetes mellitus (female only)
Parkinson's disease (nearly 4000)
Alzheimer's disease (nearly 5000)
Nonrheumatic aortic valve disorders (?)
Why no war on these?
On a much larger scale,
Stroke, not specified as haemorrhage or infarction, over 28,000.
Pneumonia, over 30,000.
Why no "War on Pneumonia"? Over ten times the number of people died from pneumonia as died in WTC.
As for 7/7, let's try to get that in perspective.
In 2004 how many people died as a result of simply being a driver involved in a traffic accident? 161.
Respiratory tuberculosis? 236.
Sudden infant death syndrome? 148.
No such war on traffic or TB is apparent. Why?
Because terror is ideal for a police state.
